Abstract

Gel-like colloid starch solutions and the effect of high dispersed silica on their phase state were studied using the method ofliquid phase layered freezing-out with 1H NMR recording of unfrozen water signal. Interphase energy of “biopolymer-water†system was established to increase from 65 to 194 J/g during starch gel dilution. Silica greatly affects the phase state of starch gel. Secondary structure of amylopectin chains is disintegrated in its presence and the stable “starch-silica†complexes are formed. Concentration of bound water in such complexes is lower than in starch gels and greatly depends on starch-silica concentration ratio. Interphasewater energy in “starch-water-silica†systems makes 21-103 J/g.
